Giving Season Begins 100 Days Before Christmas
With the resurgence of the pandemic and just 11 weeks until Christmas, The Salvation Army is digging in for another challenging season of need.
As millions of people continue to struggle with the impacts of pandemic poverty, The Salvation Army is calling on everyone to help individuals and families overcome the threat of eviction amid the holiday season.
Roughly 1.2 million Americans say they are very likely to face eviction over the next two months. With a slow distribution of federal funding, families could be evicted before relief arrives. The Salvation Army has already distributed more than $200 million dollars in direct financial assistance to help people stay in their homes in 2021.
Now more than ever, The Salvation Army needs everyone's help. Whether you’re enlisting in love’s Army with a sustaining gift of $25 per month, or volunteering at a Red Kettle- you can make a difference.
